| As for grape, I'm only making an early White this year. On Sunday, I went into the backyard, and picked all the grapes, and brought them directly into the kitchen. I rinsed them, (all organic, Yay!) sorted them, then squished and dropped them into a bucket of warm sugar water, and yeast. I removed the fruit bodies on Monday, and racked the bucketful into my 6 gallon carboy where it is now awaiting it's next racking. We're still a good couple weeks from the start of grape harvesting season, the early harvest on this batch should yield a delightful, light-bodied fruity wine. I'm already impressed with it's color and aroma. Something to look forward to! |
